Slow day for Olympic news , big day for football. Go NO!!
My grandson says he is taking in free events that are offered during the Olympics. Good for him. His sister meanwhile formed her own jazz band , entered the Envisions Jazz Festival competition and won the prize as Best Senior Jazz Musician for the whole jazz festival and won $1000. Great girl!!
Leonardo da Vinci is presenting at the Vancouver Art Gallery. It is the first time that Anatomical Manuscript has been presented in its entirety. Amazing drawings, so hard to believe the genius that could describe the skeletal and muscular magic of the human body and to think that it all took place 500 years ago.He was able to look at cadavers in the hospital and intended to publish his findings but for some reason his work disappeared . They were not published until the late 19th century which set back the advances of surgery for centuries . These drawings fit very well with the Olympic theme of athletic excellence. They have been graciously provided by Queen Elizabeth the Second from the Royal collection at Windsor castle. It is a great honour.
